>in the first dcu project >gets his own movie>possibly part of the batman 2clayface bros... we won
>>146739797It's been a long hard road but I'm glad our time is hereF to all the Clayface fans that passed on before we reached this point
>>146739899indeedi hope this leads to clayface getting more comics too
>>146739797Hope he rapes Ivy again. Massive evil CHAD.
Clayface is an interesting character to be a fan of because of how many incarnations there are.
>>146740983which one is your favorite?
>>146741088nta but this desing version of him is so sick and could've fit to body horror movie
>>146741096thats rebirth basil and it is a pretty sick design yeah i havent read his rebirth stories yet though
>>146739797Have they said which universe the Clayface film will be apart of?
>>146741217Nope but Clayface is in creature commands and Swamp Thing is delayed so I'm betting it's DCU
>>146741235I guess it's the only way for him to be in live action unless he's also in the DCU Batman movie
>>146741241*For him as a monster to be in live action
>>146739797DCU's Batman is going to be so unfairly compared to Pattinson's.
>>146741318thats why i hope the dcu take on batman is very different from battinsons
>>146741330>>146741318Pattinson is gritty and grounded while DCU Batman will be more fantastical
>>146741343his costume better be blue/black and gray
why did basil start going after people unrelated to what happened with his movie?
>>146741560his motives usually get explained in whatever story hes in
>>146739797Alright /co/.Who plays her
>>146741584also alan tudyk
his chest is so big... (ignore whats happening below)
>>146741096How does it fit muh 'body horror' when he has complete control over every molecule in his body, as well as its size, shape, and even color? Is it a forced Xitter meme, because it's not organic to the comics in the slightest.
>>146742505RAPE!Just imagine him doing this to Poison Ivy for WEEKS during No Man's Land.
>>146743080THISIf you want body horror, then the villain that should be brought to the screen is Ragdoll, not Clayface. The Ragdolls are a whole family of radical body modification cultists, with ties to organized crime, Hollywood, and politicians. They are RIPE for a horror supervillain film. Make contortionism freaky again!
>>146743080the thing also had control over its body but i think anon is referring to the people absorbed by clayface
>>146743138You mean RAPED by Clayface.
>>146743138That's just claustrophobia, not body horror.
>>146743208mr face doesnt swing that way>>146743219the design makes the victims look like theyre in the blob remake
>>146741560Because he hadn't appeared in 50 years and Alan Grant wanted to do a story defining the then four Clayfaces (Mud Pack). So he had a plot where Basil victimizes the other two for power, and everything just flowed from there.
>>146743237So you want a Blob ripoff?
>>146743244i never said that
>>146743253You said exactly that without realising it.
>>146743237Clayface (Basil Karlo) has been a known rapist since No Man's Land, anon.
>>146743256i just said the people absorbed by clayface look like the people absorbed by the blob there are other ways he can induce body horror
>>146743271i meant that he wouldnt do men
>>146743239i like how from secret origins #44/the mudpack to the story with freeze basils journey had no holes but i still dont get how he survived what happened in the no mans land story
>>146740408WTF did he do this
>>146743272Nah, he's just not a 'body horror' kinda guy. More a 'isolate and sexually torture' kinda guy, when he isn't hired muscle smashing the city or fighting the other Clayface's because he wants to eat there kid.You don't actually read comics, do you.
>>146743324No Man's Land. You should try reading comics.
>>146743080He's mentally unstable. So it's his splintered psyche trying to decide what the do with that precise control, all at once.
>>146743328did i say he was a body horror guy? i just said he can use his powers for it
>>146743335Basil isn't schizo, though. His instability is entirely emotional.
>>146743349>admitted non-readerThese inorganic as fuck threads full of your bullshit are getting sickening.
>>146743370schizo
>>146743381Exposed shill.
>>146743389how am i a non-reader i didnt even say he was a body horror character
>>146743272Yeah, like RAPE!
>>146739797Why doesn't Clayface just quickly kill Batman here?
>>146744214he actually did all comics afterwards are just batmans dreams
>>146741096see that's sort of what I mean, people know the visuals but blend the characters alot. Like people seem to largely forget Matt Hagen from BTAS isn't the current comic Clayface, and that Basil Karlo was an old man who had no powers until he copied other Clayface's abilities. Even comic writers seem to treat him as BTAS Matt.
>>146745229has there ever even been an adaptation that got basils origin story right? not the whole mudpack story but just him being a wronged actor who got his powers willingly
>>146745297Caped Crusader basically did it, though he gets his powers early on
>>146745465caped crusader comes close but aside from what you said he also wants his powers just because he wants to look better like isnt that prestons thing?
its out on 9/11
>>146739797Basilcels ALWAYS get their time in the spotlight i’m sick of it.Prestonbros it better be us this time. We know that Gunn always likes to make deep dives so maybe he will pick us.
>>146746358it will be preston but only in name
>>146746055But fucking WHY?
>>146746791subtle reference to clayface being a terrorist
>>146746791cause it's a friday.
>>146743131>Ragdoll Fuck yeah! Raggedy Andy looking motherfucker ritual murdering hippies and taking over cities with his cult. Chopping up his own kids for his own twisted views, as well as the entertainment of his 'guests', cultists and customers. Coming back from the dead by making deals with devils, besides his triple-jointed contortionism already makes him difficult to hurt, let alone kill. Perfect 'monster' movie right here, and with loads of ties to the wider DCU.
>>146746868Super fucking GAY.
>>146746358Clayface is already in Creature Commandos and Gunn confirmed this will be part of the DCU
>Flanagan loves, loves, loves the Clayface episodes from the classic Batman: The Animated Seriesit might be over for comics accurate basil
>>146747349>plans plans plans>money money money>absolutely NOTHING about ClayfaceCanceling this now would be a mercy.
>>146747402it will also reportedly be a horror-tragedy with clayface not being a villain...
>>146747453Pure garbage. Who's coming up with this retarded trash?
>>146747485mike flanagan pitched it
>>146739797more like Gayface
>>146745297Arkham Asylum
>>146739797If you shit in your hand and throw it at Clayface does it get absorbed into his body if it makes contact?
>>146748065if he wanted to
>>146747349Matt Reeves save us
>>146748011That's impressive, holy shit.
>>146748011He's such a badass he can be a final boss without any sort of super steroid.
to cope with the reecent news maybe the movie will focus on matt or even preston and basil can finally get his old self back
>>146749459Incredible how quickly you can tell such a long story>>146749489Technically he did take super steroids
>>146749576>focus on these two niggas with no personality and no storiesThey would.
>>146748011I liked how Asylum was basically in-Post Crisis universe. they strayed further and further from that.
>>146749489When you thinks about it, Clayface could be an awesome final boss with each form stage he takes, he become more disturbing and unstable like Favourite William Birkin/G from RE2
>>146749663Yeah, if he was into practical effects. But Basil's a one-note character actor, and he hasn't even cared about acting in decades.
>>146749576to add onto this with clayface already being in creature commandos there is a chance that the movie wont even be an origin especially since gunn seems so adverse to them
also its probably a streaming movie anyways
>>146747536rude
>>146746055That seems insanely soon for a movie without even a Director yet. Just 22 months away, less than two years
>>146751892this movie has probably been in development for a while already
>>146751892That's basically the time it took to make Superman 2025, Gunn comes from a fasttrack production schedule and its part of the reason he got chosen
>>146748065Yeah but after a while he hets shitfaced
>>146751892It does have a director. He's named in that picture
>>146753804Sorry ignore me I'm retarded. Mike Flanagan is also a director so I wouldn't be surprised if he's doing both directing and acting since that's what he usually does
is 40 million a big enough budget for a clayface movie? doesnt sound like he wil do much with his powers
>>146753944Godzilla Minus One had good effects with a much smaller budget
>>146754494It wasn't made by Hollywood though
>>146755280The Substance had a budget of 17 million
WHAT IF the clayface movie centers around petty crook matt hagen and loosely adapts his secret origins story?then matt reeves uses golden age basil for the batman 2 so people know his story ultimately leading to a dcu mudpack adaptationeh?
>>146749663Great art.
whats basils favorite game?
>>146756664Wario Master of Disguise
>>146753944If the goal was to produce the original silent movie. Now that would be some fucking KINO.
>>146757617i wonder if they ever attempted to remake the film again
>>146756664A Claystation exclusive
>>146739797His theme in BTAS was so depressing for some reasonhttps://youtu.be/UCtQPKcTQtU?si=JKyYrG_w8JCC_nTP
>>146758829He's a sympathetic character in TAS
>>146757962Clayface would kill them
>>146739797>file nameThat's Cassius
>>146756664Clayfighter 63 1/3
why did basil never use preston and sondras powers after the mudpack story?
>>146762004He might have just lost them somehow
>>146756664He would be so chill if he just continued gaming
>>146762004Writers have a habit of depowering characters for 'stakes', and Basil was decidedly op.
>>146763023>>146764346he also briefly had electricity powers lol
>>146765356When?
Where did all this clayface love come from, always thought of him as just a solid mid tier guy but he’s blowing up
>>146766850He's been in a bunch of stuff as of late
>>146766850Nah
>>146747349Anon, even the comics adapted the Batman TAS stuff into Basil's character to the point that his newest origin from the Rebirth has him starting with powers.No one was expecting a powerless Basil that gets powers from Hagen's remains because only like 26 people care about that.
>>146766850I liked him in Rebirth.
>Clayface is not going to be a villain>Gunn's favorite Batgirl is CassThere's an actual chance that their friendship might make it into the DCU.
>>146739797Why is his dick so big?
>>146766760when he fought freeze>>146767848i know and i wasnt expecting his original origin to be told one to one...that being said more people would care about it if it wasnt so obscure>>146769165he radiates bde
>>146769271True, but I think people generally find the concepts introduced in TAS more interesting than Clayface's original origin.
>>146769471i mean i dont mind the tas origin i just dislike it being for basilif it the clayface in the movie ends up being basil though i hope they at least make him akin to a classic universal monster actor...also on an unrelated note do you happen to have a reading order for rebirth basil? so far ive only read his origin story
>>146769165Was it already big before he got his powers
>>146770442Why do you think he went mad?
>>146771569Of course....He couldn't find a woman who could take it, and now that he's made out of clay not even the worst size queens will
>>146771579Will this be why the movie is a tragedy?
>>146768050I guess she'll show up in TBATB
>>146739797>>possibly part of the batman 2It's also possible Condiment King will be in it since the movie doesn't even have a first draft yet
Why does he keep eating people?
>>146767848It still vastly reduces the amount of available stories the character has, not to mention the character itself. It's a bad play, all around, regardless how you attempt to reduce it or make false appeals to popularity.
>>146769165For you (Ivy).
>>146774905Turning into clay gave him a vore fetish
>>146749644The New 52 and it's consequences
I like Ethan Bennett
